While the USA is busy stuffing Thanksgiving turkey, one of our favorite American exports is heading to Amsterdam. From November 23 - 27, the High Times Cannabis Cup returns to our hometown for the 27th edition of this world famous event.

This promises to be a memorable year with a full program that includes activist talks and seminars, promotions, a whole lot of partying and of course the Cup competition. Naturally our own birds of Paradise will be spreading their wings over this Expo too.

The High Times Cannabis Cup is the globe’s premium marijuana festival. Started in 1987, the Cup has been a benchmark, the place where the world’s best cannabis varieties make their name. Paradise Seeds is part of that history. In 1999 we took the indica category by storm with Sensi Star, which is still widely recognized today for its reputation as one of the strongest indicas you will ever smoke.

So, the High Times Cup has a special place in our hearts! This year, we will be returning to the competition with a Sensi Star entry into the extraction category along with a CBD variety in the weed section. We will also be at the Expo with a stand dispensing seeds and information. And to celebrate High Times in our hometown, we have an extra special promotion at our flagship Paradise Seeds/Amsterdam Seed Center store during the week (See below for details).

However, as a seed bank with 29 varieties on our books, we guarantee that we have something for everyone this High Times Cup! From Cup winner Sensi Star to our new school varieties that have been winning over critics, customers and connoisseurs; from our big bud secret Wappa and superior legend Atomical Haze to the deadly beauty and versatile high of our Whiteberry strain.

The Expo also features appearances from some of the big names on the scene, personalities who have pushed the frontiers of cannabis activism and helped to shine the light for a worldwide scene which is more healthy now than at any time in history.

Receiving a lifetime achievement award is the famed Canadian weed activist Marc Emery who was released in August from a US jail, where he served a 5 year sentence for distributing seeds. Over the course of a very long fight he has funded lawsuits against the US government and supported many campaigns to ease marijuana restrictions in North America.
